I am newbie to myth tv and am willing to install/test/debug mythtv 
software/components - help with debugging, etc.,  in exchange for 
guidance. I have just purchased Gateway 818GM media centre PC and have 
it running under - yea - M$ Windowse XP 2005. It does work, but of 
course I want it running under Linux or BSD or OS/2... I have various 
'older' PC's back to '486's. I have 'several' years 
programming/hardware/telecomm exper., amongst others. This noob to the 
toob is willing to help
